Get to Know Your Monkeysphere

The Monkeysphere is not a vulgar concept, although this gamer's stab at sociology has some decidedly rude language. But it's an amusing take on our lack of inability to pay attention to what's going on outside our sphere of personal contact:

Yes, the Monkeysphere. That's the group of people who each of us, using our monkeyish brains, are able to conceptualize as people. If the monkey scientists are monkey right, it's physically impossible for this to be a number larger than 150. Most of us do not have room in our Monkeysphere for our friendly neighborhood Sanitation Worker. So, we don't think of him as a person. We think of him The Thing That Makes The Trash Go Away.
